Question with Tesla Go Anywhere....

[Teslitored]

Hi,

I was playing with the online Tesla Go Anywhere... from Sacramento to Yellowstone NP, the planner gives me a long route going south passing Bakersfield , Las Vegas ,SLC and going north to Yellowstone NP.

Google Maps, gives me a more logical route pretty much straight to Yellowstone NP.

Why is this???

Also it calls my attention that there would be several stops for charging (13 actually), some of them 10, 15 or 40 min. Is this the way how you typically travel long distances???

I'm new, and trying to understand how this works... I have the ICE mentality when planning a long trip, but I should change to EV mentality once my MY is delivered...

Tell it to go via battle mountain nv. Dunno why it doesn’t suggest 80 at first, but it is viable.

A Better Route Planner seems to be more logical:

Just so you know, the online tesla planner does not plan like the in car navigation will. I won't say in car navigation will map this route better by default, but the website is not the same. I would guess that it's probably not got current supercharger data and so tried to plan you a route that would work with the ones it did have.
